The Cheyenne II seed we planted came up and was awesome the first growing season, but at least 60% of it failed to come back the next year. Each year more of it would die out over the winter. We did not have severe winters those years, probably less than 10 days below freezing and no severe freezes.
The hayfield where we planted it has good sandy loam soil. We took (and continue to take) soil samples and apply fertilizer according to what the soil samples say we need. It was not the growing conditions or poor soil conditions that caused the failure. What little we have left doesn't even look like the stuff that came up the first year. It looks somewhat like tall common bermuda - very stemmy with short leaves.
We had the seed rep come out and look and didn't get an answer from him. We also had our ag agent come out and he agreed it was not the growing conditions or soil conditions that caused the failure. He also said others were reporting failures with Cheyenne II.
